Question
Single replacement reactions, Balance the unbalanced equations (information in photos)
C. Single Replacement Reactions
The subscripts on specific ions in the products are not always the same as the subscripts in the reactants. Note
reaction 1 below. See how the nitrate ion has a subscript of one in silver nitrate and two in copper nitrate.
1. copper + silver nitrate
→ copper(II) nitrate + silver
Cu
+ AgNO,
→ Cu(NO,), + Ag
(unbalanced)
2. magnesium + hydrochloric acid
→ magnesium chloride + hydrogen
3. calcium + water
calcium hydroxide + hydrogen
